Abstract Background and aims: Amplification of sensory signalling within the nervous system along with psychosocial factors contributes to the variation and severity of knee pain. Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a non-invasive test battery that assesses sensory perception of thermal, pressure, mechanical and vibration stimuli used in the assessment of pain. Psychosocial factors also have an important role in explaining the occurrence of pain. The aim was to determine whether QST measures were associated with self-reported pain, and whether those associations were mediated by psychosocial

Abstract BACKGROUND: Hemophilia, a congenital bleeding disorder resulting from a deficiency in clotting factors, typically VIII or IX, results in a propensity for severe, sometimes life-threatening or disabling, bleeds. Severity is determined by the baseline level of factor in plasma. Patients often require regular intravenous infusions of factor to prevent or treat bleeding episodes. Joint bleeds can lead to disabling arthropathy and past contamination of blood products has resulted in an epidemic of HIV and hepatitis in this community.

Abstract:

Background: Spontaneous joint bleeding is common in people with hemophilia (PWH). These bleeds lead to reduced physical activity and thus to a weakening of the musculature. Common sequelae of this are synovitis and cartilage damage. In the long term, secondary osteoarthritis, so-called hemophilic arthropathy, occurs with changes and progressive destruction of joint structures (Lafeber et al., 2008). Hemophilic arthropathy is age-independent and can lead to severe movement restrictions and significant limitations in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of affected PWH (Varaklioti et al., 2018

Factor analyses, applied to the data of 35 subjects, showed that the left hand related more to a keen and sharp dimension while the right hand related more to a mild and soft dimension of the tactile stimulus. Possible relations of these hand differences in sensitivity to hemisphere functioning were discussed.

BackgroundWestern Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) is commonly used in research studies of knee osteoarthritis (OA). It is commonly reported as ordinal raw scores. Previous validation studies using Rasch models requires item deletion. Conversion table to Interval scale for meaningful measurement is not available.ObjectivesWe aim to evaluate the fit of WOMAC to the Rasch model in a large sample of patients with knee OA who have undergone knee arthroplasty (KA) to derive the transformation table for interval scale measurement.MethodsWe used data collected from knee

(1) Background: Meniscal tears are amongst the most common knee injuries. Dislocated bucket handle meniscal tears in particular should receive early intervention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CT in detecting dislocated bucket handle meniscal tears compared with the gold-standard MRI and arthroscopy. (2) Methods: Retrospectively, 96 consecutive patients underwent clinically indicated CT of the knee for suspected acute traumatic knee injuries (standard study protocol, 120 kV, 90 mAs).

Background: Intra-articular treatment of knee osteoarthrosis (OA) with hyaluronic acid (IA-HA) is frequently used in Argentina, with different dosing forms and injection regimens. Our main objective was to provide real world data on the use and effectiveness of IA-HAMethods: In this observational retrospective cohort study we studied 1227 patients with knee osteoarthrosis treated with IA-HA 20mg/2ml weekly (76%-20mg group) and 40mg/2ml (24%-40mg group) according to usual practice intervals.

Abstract:

Summary. Knee joint injury in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) occurs in 70% of cases. This is the most common cause of loss of work capacity and the ability to selfcare; patients become severely disabled, since the disease is accompanied by contractures with the development of discordant positions of the lower limbs, which leads to a partial or complete loss of the function of support and walking. Thus, this problem needs to be studied. Objective: to analyze the orthopedic treatment of secondary arthrosis of the knee joints in patients with RA, complicated by contractures.

The work is done using the lateral portal, while the medial portal serves as a viewing site.
